I don't know if it's possible to fix something like this now that the product is already release :( Marcus, can you help me here? Karl, I talked to Marcus on IRC and he explained that you should upgrade directly from 11.2 to 11.3, without upgrading zypper first. I tried this here and it works: - Configured 11.3 repositories (oss, non-oss, debug, updates) and disabled 11.2 - Executed "zypper dup" directly. Zypper then tells me it will remove libsnmp15 and install libsnmp20. We can't add "Obsoletes: libsnmp15" because this would prevent the parallel installation of libsnmp15 and libsnmp20, and this is something we want to support. Let me know if you agree with comment #2, so I can close this bug. Thanks. I'm not that sure whether calling "zypper dup" directly is good enough. In the past, I was told that you first must update the PM stack with the said commands and that's how it is documented in the manual. http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:System_upgrade is related documentation, which I don't fully understand, though. Jano, Michel, can you please shed some light on this issue? TIA! Hi, may I assume comment #2 is right and close this as wont fix? I'm sorry but, considering that we can't add the "Obsoletes" tag to the net-snmp package and "zypper dup" works fine, I'm closing this as WONTFIX. But the documented and up 'til now recommended upgrade procedure does not work. I'll create a separate bug...

There is a small issue when renewing the package management stack before calling "zypper dup" to go from 11.2 to 11.3: 13:56 < ke> zypper in zypper 13:56 < ke> Loading repository data... 13:56 < ke> Reading installed packages... 13:56 < ke> Resolving package dependencies... 13:56 < ke> Problem: zypper-1.4.5-1.10.i586 requires libzypp.so.706, but this requirement cannot be provided 13:56 < ke> uninstallable providers: libzypp-7.7.5-7.2.i586[openSUSE-11.3-Oss] 13:56 < ke> Solution 1: deinstallation of libsnmp15-5.4.2.1-11.2.1.i586 13:56 < ke> Solution 2: do not ask to install a solvable providing zypper > 1.3.4-0.1.3 13:56 < ke> Solution 3: break zypper by ignoring some of its dependencies 13:56 < ke> Choose from above solutions by number or cancel [1/2/3/c] (c): I selected 1/ and succeeded in the end. Maybe, there is a missing obsolete somewhere. This happenend on a plain 11.2 installation (GNOME desktop), when I had configured the 11.3 repositories (oss and update).
